The official 2008 Lollapalooza lineup was released today and it seems that the rumor of Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails headlining the music festival proved true. Not only that, but the newly reformed Rage Against the Machine are also making a headlining appearance after much speculation that they would be headlining Lollapalooza last year. It seems like the 90’s love fest will be in full swing on August 1-3 at Grant Park in Chicago, IL for Lollapalooza 2008. I have to say the lineup is exceptionally strong considering one of the non-headliners, Kanye West, headlined the festival just two years ago.
